# Automating SOC Alert Triage with Amazon Bedrock Agents

**[Halodoc](https://daily.dev/sources/halodoc)** · 16 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Halodoc built an AI-driven SOC alert triage system using Amazon Bedrock Agents integrated with an OpenSearch-based SIEM. Three domain-specific agents (AWS, on-prem, and third-party security) automatically enrich alerts, correlate evidence, retrieve threat intelligence, and output a standardized JSON verdict (Summary, Severity, Recommendation, Tags). High-confidence incidents escalate to Tier-2 via Jira/Google Chat, while eligible false positives auto-close with sampled human review. Model evaluation across Amazon Nova models found the smallest, Nova Lite, most accurate and cost-effective for this use case, outperforming larger models. In production, time to first investigation dropped from minutes/hours to seconds, coverage became 24x7, and the team processed 1,500+ alerts without queue backlog, while keeping humans in control of Tier-2 decisions and remediation.

## Questions this post answers

### Which Amazon Nova model works best for automating security alert investigation with Bedrock Agents?

Amazon Nova Lite, the smallest and most cost-effective model tested, produced the most accurate investigations when evaluated against larger Nova models. It correctly identified the highest-risk issue, returned a valid structured JSON response, and gave precise remediation guidance, outperforming larger models that generated more detailed but less accurate responses on the same alert payloads and context.

_Teams weighing model size against accuracy for security automation can track real-world evaluations like this on daily.dev._

### How much can AI-driven SIEM alert triage reduce time to first investigation compared to manual analyst triage?

Time to first investigation dropped from minutes to hours under manual analyst-dependent triage down to seconds after alert generation with an AI-driven workflow. The AI-driven approach also enabled 24x7 continuous investigation coverage and processed over 1,500 alerts since launch without a queue backlog, versus a manual capacity of roughly 50-60 alerts per day.

### What architecture is used to connect Amazon Bedrock Agents to a SIEM for automated alert investigation?

An event-driven pipeline publishes OpenSearch Alerting events to an Amazon SNS topic, an AWS Lambda routing function inspects alert metadata to pick the right domain-specific Bedrock Agent (AWS, on-prem, or third-party security), and the agent queries OpenSearch via a VPC-scoped Lambda plus threat intelligence sources before emitting a structured JSON verdict with summary, severity, recommendation, and tags.
